Skip Bayless likes Cowboys – sort of

IRVING – Stephen A. Smith and Skip Bayless of ESPN’s First Take both predict the Cowboys will beat the Eagles tonight.

Make no mistake. Bayless still thinks the Cowboys will fall short of the Super Bowl.

“The Eagles will ultimately go farther than the Cowboys in the playoffs, but Dallas will win tonight, because they are supposed to win (at home),” Bayless said.

Smith likes Dallas because he predicts they’ll win the battle in the trenches.

“The (Eagles’) offensive line is a weakness, the Cowboys defensive line is a strength,” Smith said. “…This is the Cowboys year. The Eagles are relying too much on a rookie wide receiver (DeSean Jackson). Dallas wins 28-27.”
